The gate width arrives with the job

Access, stump diameter and what happens to the chip are picked while they book, so the machine on the trailer is the right one before you leave the yard.

Smart scheduling

Small grinds land beside the big ones

Your page leans towards the times that add the least driving to a day already booked, so a one-hour stump is not a two-hour round trip.

The gate settles the machine.

Access width, stump diameter and what happens to the chip are picked from options while the customer books, each with its own effect on the price. The answer arrives with the job instead of meeting you at the kerb.

A grind has a short life.

Asked for, booked, ground, paid. There is no second visit and no snag list, so the whole job is one row you can read at a glance — which is exactly why the small ones are only worth taking when nothing about them needs chasing.

The clearance that will not self-serve.

A dozen stumps on a block is not a page booking. It arrives as a request with the photos on it, and nothing enters the diary until you say so.

  • It still lands

    No slot fits a full day on the big machine, so the page asks rather than turning them away, and the job is on your list by morning.

  • Accept it and it is real

    One tap turns the request into a booking with the address, the stump count and the photographs already attached to it.

Twelve stumps on the block, open access, no fence. Can you price the lot? Photos attached.

One stump, quoted three depths.

Ground flush, taken down enough for turf, or out to footing depth with the roots chased. Same stump, three prices, one document.

  • Depth is the price

    Flush, down for turf, or out to footing depth are separate lines, so the number moves with the work rather than with a guess.

  • Chip is a line, not a favour

    Barrowed to a garden bed or gone on the trailer, it is itemised on the quote and agreed before the pile exists.

  • A number set once

    The quote reference is fixed the moment it is issued, so your copy and their copy are unmistakably the same document.

  • Three depths side by side comes with Pro

    Pro puts the three side by side on one estimate with one marked recommended, so the customer picks a depth instead of ringing to ask what the difference is. Accepted, it becomes a booked job.

A multi-stump clearance, itemised and ready to send.

The arborist with three addresses.

The trade that fells the tree is the customer who keeps calling, and rarely about one stump. Their messages stay in a thread filed against the work rather than scattered down a phone.

The property remembers what is under it.

What the plans showed, where the marks were, how wide the side access was and how deep you took the last one. The second call to that address starts from something written down.

The clearances still out.

Big jobs are quoted, not booked, so they sit somewhere between sent and won. You can see which ones have been opened and which have gone quiet, without ringing anyone to find out.

Built for grinding

Built for every kind of stump

The single backyard stump

One old jacaranda behind a side gate. A set price on your page, booked without a phone call, an hour on site including the setup.

Follow-on from an arborist

They felled it last week and left the stump. A second visit with a different machine, usually against a customer who already has a record with you.

A block cleared before a build

A dozen stumps, no fence in the way and a full day on the big machine. Quoted rather than booked, and priced by the day.

Roots lifting a driveway

Not a stump at all. Surface grinding before the concrete goes back down, with the landscaper as the customer rather than the owner.

The camphor laurel nobody wants

A metre across and taken deep for a new footing. Its own price band, because it is a different machine and a great deal more chip.

Narrow access down the side

Under 800mm and the ride-on stays on the trailer. Asked at booking, so the day is planned around the machine that actually fits.

Chip gone or chip left in the hole

A priced option ticked while booking, so the pile in the driveway is something that was chosen and paid for rather than argued about.

A fence line of old stumps

Twenty small ones along a single boundary, priced per stump rather than by the hour and cleared in one visit.

Grinding before the turf goes down

The landscaper needs it deep enough for the turf to take. Depth is the option that moves the price, and it is chosen before you arrive.

Stumps out on a rural block

Past the ground you cover, so it asks first. You weigh the drive, the number and the access before anything lands in the diary.

How far a stump is worth towing.

A single grind cannot pay for forty minutes each way. Set the ground you cover once and the page holds the line without you on the phone.

  • Pick the areas, not a circle

    Coverage follows real boundaries, so the wrong side of the freeway does not end up in your week because it looked close on a map.

  • Past the line it asks

    A rural block you might take for a whole day is worth a conversation, so it arrives as a request rather than as a booking.

  • The second machine, its own ground

    If the other operator works the far side of town, the areas they cover are theirs to fill and nobody crosses the city twice.

A map with three service areas shaded over a street grid, and a list of territories beneath, each a group of suburbs with its crew.

  • Paddington7 suburbs · 2 crew
  • Sydney North7 suburbs · 2 crew

The small stump that fits tomorrow.

Open slots are scored on the driving each one adds, so a one-hour grind lands on the afternoon you are already two streets away.

  • Ranked, never reordered

    You still pick the day. The ranking only lifts the times sitting near a job you have on already.

  • On every plan

    This is not the part you pay for. It is simply how the page decides which times to offer in the first place.

  • Real driving, not a straight line

    The scoring uses actual drive times between the addresses, and it never changes what the customer is charged.

Paid before the chip settles.

Most grinds are still squared up on the day, and writing that down costs nothing at all. Cards are the only part that sits on Pro.

  • Cash and transfer are free

    Mark it paid and the receipt goes out on its own, without a plan being involved anywhere in it.

  • Cards come with Pro

    For the customer who would rather tap than go looking for the account details, paid into your own Stripe account.

  • Stages, after the booking

    Pro splits a week of clearing into a start and a finish. It happens on the job once it exists, never at a checkout.

A list of payments, each with the customer, reference, date, method and amount, with totals received and still outstanding.

One app for the whole job

Everything you need to run your stump grinding business.

Online booking

Set-price stumps book themselves off your page, with access and chip removal answered as options before the slot is taken off you.

Scheduling

A one-hour grind only pays if it sits beside work you already have, so the times offered lean towards the day you are nearby anyway.

Bookings

Every grind in one list carrying the gate width, the diameter and whether the chip is going, so the trailer loads right the first time.

Estimates

A block of stumps itemised by size, with chip removal and root chasing as their own lines, sent as a link and accepted online.

Customers

Every property keeps what you found under it: the services marked out, the access down the side and the depth you took the last one to.

Inbox

The arborist sending three addresses and the owner asking about the mulch each keep a thread, filed against the job it is actually about.

Territories

Set the ground the trailer is worth towing to. An address past the line asks first rather than booking a small stump an hour away.

Team

The second operator sees the addresses, the start times and which machine is going, for the days they are on and nothing beyond them.

Payments

Cash on the day and bank transfer are free to record. Cards come with Pro, as does splitting a week of clearing into a start and a finish.

Common questions.

Put it on the service as an option group: under 800mm, 800 to a metre, or wide open. The customer picks one while booking, and the answer arrives with the job instead of meeting you at the kerb.

Yes. Run the common diameters as set-price services that book straight in, and let anything past the top band come through as a request you quote after a look.

Bookables does not locate anything and never will. Lodge the free BYDA enquiry yourself, then keep the plans and the mark-out on the job and on the property, so the next grind at that address starts from what you already found.

You can. Add it as a priced option on the service. The customer ticks it while booking, the total updates on the page, and the amount is worked out on our side rather than yours.

It does. The arborist is a customer like any other: one thread you answer, every address they have sent you on the one record, and a single quote covering the three stumps they rang about.

Cash on the day and bank transfer are recorded by hand on the Free plan and cost nothing. Cards come with Pro, and they are paid into your own Stripe account rather than held here.
